it is a problem that unlike , japan and the republic of south korea, the obama administration has had a different position in terms of civilian airliners going over that. the problem with the air defense zone that china has asserted is it goes far beyond the normal practice. normally when a civilian airliner goes over in the air defense identification zone, they'll have to collaborate with , in this case, china, if they are in the sovereign territory. if you are landing, china says you have to come through. i personally agree with japan and the republic of korea that china needs to roll back the air defense identification zone over the east china sea. host: how would you grade or rate secretary kerry on how he is administering it? guest: a couple of caveats -- i'm always uncomfortable with grades. they can be kind of flippant. any tech -- any secretary of state, republican and democrat, will enjoy successes and failures. if i have to grade him, i will do it two ways. first, secretary kerry's performance, putting aside the prudence of policies that the president has asked him to push f

if they were not, president obama would not be coming. but for president obama this is a little bit of a repeat. he was in south africa this summer, at that time, nelson mandela's health was so poor it was really touch and go. so you have had secret service in touch with their counterparts for sometime now. a preliminary plan was in place here. and i also spoke today with former administration officials to presidents clinton and bush who were instrumental in planning their trips to the funerals for israeli prime minister rabin, they say within four to six hours of nelson mandela already passing away there already would have been a support plane en route to south africa. they say it is a monumental undertaking, because some of the security issues are outsourced to the other countries and that can be difficult for secret service. >> well, we'll be there to cover it. starting at 3:30 in the united states, and you can follow me at twitter, @andersoncooperme. coming up next, my exclusive conversation with bono.
